;[Salary Rate Method|??]: For salaried employees, there are multiple ways the system can derived a salary or wage value for the pay line. This field indicates the method to calculate this rate.
;[Custom Rate Logic|??]: Custom rate logic is logic defined by High Line, based on client specification.
----
;[Highest Rate of the Day|HIGHEST_RATE_OF_DAY]: This field applies the higher of the wage rates derived from either the ‘Rate Source’ chosen, or from the employee's Prime Assignment Rate. The ‘Highest Rate of the Day’ logic is invoked independently and at a later point in time. It compares the ‘Wage Rate’ stamped on the Pay Line Detail, to the highest ‘Wage Rate’ on all Pay Line Details. After choosing the higher, the calculation rule is applied and the individual amounts are generated.

!!Define Pay Components (IPPC) - Acct/Arrears
!!Acct Arrears tab
Review the [DEDUCTIONS AND ARREARS] page for additional details on the logic of the following fields.
;[Insufficient Earnings|POSITIVE_DEDUCTION]: Defines the method a deduction should be made from gross pay.
*‘All Or None’ ignores the deduction if there is insufficient gross. Typically used for items such as savings, bonds, charitable donations, United Way, credit union, etc.
*‘As Much As Possible’ takes a partial deduction when there is insufficient gross. Typically used for items such as loan repayments, parking, union dues, etc. It is recommended that the [Create Arrears|POSITIVE_ARREARS] toggle also be set to ON with this setting, in order to generate an arrears transaction for any balance that could not be taken.
*'Full With Advance' takes the full deduction and advances the employee any shortfall. Used for items such as insurance coverage. It is recommended that the [Create Arrears|POSITIVE_ARREARS] toggle be set to ON if an arrears transaction must be generated to recover the amount advanced to the employee on a subsequent pay.
*When there is Insufficient Earnings and the rule is to take the deduction ‘Full with Advance’, this will advance an amount to cover the deduction that could not be taken for this pay component. \\ \\ To create arrears for the deduction portion that is not taken (the Advance amount in this case), the 'Create Arrears' toggle must be set to ON. Once set to ON, users can optionally set up the Arrears PC. When the Arrears PC is set up, the arrears will be generated under this pay component (such as PC 3369). Otherwise the arrears will be generated under the original deduction pay component (such as PC 3368). \\ \\When the deduction (such as PC 3368) is a Negative Deduction amount, and the rule is to ‘Add to Gross’, the 'Collect Back' must be set to ON. Once set to ON, the negative deduction will be set up as an arrear under the Recoverable Advance pay component for recovery in the next pay. \\ \\After arrears are generated, users must define the:\\*Arrears Recovery rule to recover the arrears. Options are Only One Per Pay or Recover All at Once. \\*CR G/L Account field should be set up for the deduction pay component to generate journal entries.
;[Create Arrears|POSITIVE_ARREARS]: If the Create Arrears toggle is set to ON, whenever there are insufficient earnings to cover the deduction, an arrears transaction for the deduction is generated for the purpose of recovering the amount on a subsequent pay. If the toggle is set to OFF, no arrears are generated for the insufficient earnings, and the deduction is forgotten.
;[Arrears PC|]:
;[Abbreviation|]:
;[Negative Deduction|NEGATIVE_DEDUCTION]: The negative deduction rule determines how a negative deduction, such as a refund or 'credit' to the employee, will be processed.
*Add Back To Gross - returns the deduction to the employee by adding it back to the employee's gross pay, enabling it to be used to cover other deductions.
*Add Back To Net - returns the deduction to the employee, but does not enable it to cover any other deductions (strict refund). This option tends to be used for items that are not normally part of the gross to net calculation, such as allowances or expense reimbursements. When a recoverable advance is set up as a negative deduction, the [Collect Back|NEGATIVE_ARREARS] toggle must be set to ON to generate an arrears transaction to recover the amount advanced on a subsequent pay.
;[Collect Back|NEGATIVE_ARREARS]: This toggle is only set to ON for one pay component - Advance Recovery. If this toggle is set to ON, the negative deduction is considered to be a recoverable advance, and an arrears transaction is generated for the purpose of recovering the advance on a subsequent pay. If the toggle is set to OFF, the negative deduction is treated as a refund or reimbursement to the employee, for which no recovery is required.
;:Negative deductions occur when we have to pay the employee back for taking too much money from their pay for whatever reason (e.g. they were listed as Family deduction and should only have been Single for some Benefit plan).
;:''Example:
;:''If the Collect Back toggle is set to OFF:
;:''Gross 1000
;:''Deduction - 20
;:''Net = 1020 (Correct – because the company owed the employee)
;:''Next Pay: Nothing happens
\\
;:''If the Collect Back toggle is set to ON:
;:''Gross 1000
;:''Deduction - 20
;:''Net = 1020 (Correct) Arrears created (20)
;:''Next Pay:
;:''Gross 1000
;:''Arrears - 20
;:''Net = 980 (If ‘Collect Back’ toggle is set to ON, it will result in the deduction being recovered on the next pay)
;:Negative_Arrears is an optional toggle field.
;:The 'Collect Back' toggle is only set ON for [pay component usage|PAY COMPONENT USAGES] of 5 - ‘Advance Recovered’. If the 'Collect Back' is set to ON for deductions, this will result in an incorrect calculation during the next pay, as arrears will be generated and the gross amount reduced.
;[Arrears Recovery|DEDUCTION_RECOVERY]: The Deduction Recovery rule defines how deductions that are in arrears will be recovered.
*Only One Per Pay - recovers the deduction on a single transaction basis. Example: When an employee is three deductions in arrears for the same pay component, the pay calculation process attempts to recover only the oldest arrears transaction for that pay component. If there are insufficient earnings to collect the whole amount of the arrears transaction, the uncollected balance is generated as a new arrears transaction.
;:This rule is primarily used for deductions applied to irregular employees. If the employee has not worked enough hours to cover certain deductions for more than a few pays, the system will wait until the employee has enough earnings. It does not recover all arrears at one time and leave the employee with very little net pay. Therefore, recover the arrears one deduction at a time.
;:This rule is used for larger amount deductions where it is unlikely that there will be sufficient earnings to cover more than the regular deduction plus a single arrears transaction.
*Recover All At Once - recovers all arrear amounts for this pay component, regardless of the number of times this deduction was in arrears.
;:This rule recovers arrears on a multiple transaction basis. Example: When an employee is three deductions in arrears for the same pay component, the pay calculation process attempts to recover each of these three deductions on the next pay.
;:If there are insufficient earnings to collect the whole amount of the arrears transaction, the uncollected balance is generated as a new arrears transaction. This rule is used for deductions that are small enough for there to be a strong possibility of recovering more than one from the same pay.

!!Premiums tab
Premium type usages provide the ability to define the list of the premium type(s), if any, which are applicable to a pay component.
If a premium type usage is not defined, premiums of this type can not be used with the pay component.
;[Premium Type|PREMIUM_TYPE_CODE]:User defined premium type code, such as 'shift' or 'night'.
;[Distribution Rule|USE_PC_DISTRIBUTION]: This option enables the premium expenses to be costed either the same way as the pay component it’s attached to, or to be costed in conjunction with the Pay Line GL Mask.
;:''Use Prem PC GL Mask (no Pay Line Distr override)
;:''Use Prem+PL GL Mask (no Pay Line Distr override) (Default Rule)

!!Retro Pay tab
If a users wants retro pay to be calculated on the earnings of this pay component, the retro pay tab must be defined.
The Retro PC and the Retro Evaluation Method fields are mandatory; the Retro UserCalc is an optional field.
;[Retro PC|PPC_ID_RETRO]:This field holds the pay component the retro earnings will be stored. This can be the original earnings pay component.
;[Abbreviation|PC_ABBREVIATION]:This field provides a short description of the retro pay component. PC_Abbreviation is defaulted based on the Retro PC defined.
;[Retro Method|RETRO_METHOD]:This field defines how the retro pay will be evaluated, either by pay component or by pay line.
;[Retro User Calc|MUC_ID_RETRO]:This field defines any [UserCalcs|USERCALC] associated with this retro pay. UserCalcs are ‘only’ used for retro on ‘non-earnings’ pay components, such as Benefits or an increase in a deduction. This feature is rarely used and [UPRETRO] is more commonly used to compute an increase in ‘Earnings’ into the past.
